Pet care experience

Tender care when you’re not there!

Currently only taking short boarding requests due to my girl potentially being spayed in the near future. I’ve owned 3 dogs in my whole 28 years all of from different types of breed which had come with different challenges. As well as having experience with cat, rabbits and guinea pigs. Always willing to put the best effort mentally, physically and compassionately when it comes to my own animals so why not spread that further to those who may need a helping hand. I have experience with protection dogs and exotic cats including 14 Savannah Cats.

Drop-In Visits • May 28, 2026

Catherine did 4 drop-in visits for our two cats over a 3 day period. She was very kind, responsive and thorough, no issues at all. She made sure to feed them separately at first so the more shy cat could get more comfortable with her - we felt like our cats were in safe hands while we were away.

Boarding • May 27, 2026

Catherine treated my Maggie like her own and was truly spoiled! I got photos of long walks, picnics and trips to cafes. Cat met with us twice before the boarding to ensure she learnt everything about my dog and Bernie got on with Maggie. Brilliant experience for me and my dog! If she could talk, I’m certain she’d ask to go back.

Catherine is fantastic. Been so amazing with our two dogs. Spending time with them. And just clearly enjoying visiting them. They look relaxed and clearly excited to see her each visit.

Catherine has been a fantastic dog walker for Buddy. She is reliable, friendly and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. Buddy always comes back happy and well exercised after his walks. Communication has been great and it is reassuring to know he is in such safe and capable hands. Highly recommended.

Schedule

I am currently fully flexible, available any day and any time that I am needed. I also drive so I can commute further if necessary. However, if boarding is requested they must be able to get along with other dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a home owner who knows plenty of woods, parks and walking spaces to roam. If I am providing a drop in I will ensure the home is left how I find it and that any animals needs are met even if there are any necessary special requirements.

Pets

A typical day

I have my own 11 month old Cocker Spaniel who I enjoy taking here there and everywhere with me. She can accompany me as she is perfect off lead if the client dog is friendly with other dogs. But I am also able to leave her at home if necessary as she is fully independent and my partner works from home 3 days a week. She is also fine with cats, she loves everyone and anything.

I am not shy about looking after animals with special requirements. I am more than willing to help when necessary, I just need a heads up and we’re all good to go.
